My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 439

This was Old Master Granger's office when he was still alive.

It was the office that was used by each President of the Granger family.

The first time she was here was when Old Master Granger's father was still alive. He was her father-in-law.

Before that, she had always thought that she and Old Master Granger would divorce soon.

Her father-in-law had called his assistant to show Bethany around Valiant East the first time she was here. After that, he took her to this office and told her that she must take good care of Old Master Granger. He had thought highly of her, the future Madam of the Granger family at that time.

He also reminded her not to give up no matter what, and to never let another woman take her place in the house.

She remembered that she was helpless at that time. She also told her father-in-law firmly that she would respect Old Master Granger's opinion and let him make a choice.

Old Master Granger eventually came back.

However, she had always felt that she had no say in the decision-making at that time.

Now, she could finally make her own choices and decisions.

After looking around the office, Bethany walked towards the cabinet at the far corner of the room. The photos of the former Chairmen of the Granger family were framed and placed in the glass cabinet. She looked at Old Master Granger's photo for a long time before finally speaking up.

"This position belongs to my son. I want those who killed my son to pay the price. I intend to take back everything that belongs to him too. Just you watch and see, my capabilities as the Chairman would not be any worse than yours."

At the end of the day, only silence and loneliness filled the room.

At this moment, Clint was reporting to Amos in the President's office.

"I've made all the arrangements according to your usual practice. Do you have anything else to add, President Granger?"

Amos gave a cursory glance at the report, "I trust you. Let's talk about the schedule for the day."

Clint smiled. This kind of trust between them was the motivation that drove him to work even harder.

He then informed Amos of his schedule. Valiant East hadn't had a leader for a while, hence Amos had a lot of company affairs to attend to.

His schedule was occupied from morning to night. When he heard that he would only be done by 8.30 p.m., he frowned and said, "Cancel the lunch break and those meetings that are the least important. Reduce the meeting time by half. Also, from now on,

I want to get off latest by 6 p.m. Make the necessary adjustments for that, okay?"

Clint understood immediately. Amos was trying to spare the time to go home and accompany his wife.

However...

"Lunch break is very important. Shall we slot in a half an hour break into your schedule instead?"

"It's fine! It's the same if I were to rest at night! Just do as I say!"

Clint nodded. The secretary then came into the room to report the daily progress.

"President Granger, Mr. Hamilton from the Project Department is here!"

Amos smirked, "Let him in."

Clint went to open the door. Andrew was very pleased when he saw that it was Clint who had opened the door for him.

"Amos, technically speaking, we are considered family even though we did not meet each other often in the past. What's the point of fighting among ourselves, right?"

Amos didn't answer him and merely looked at him indifferently. Andrew grew a little nervous because he couldn't figure out what Amos was thinking about.

However, Amos chuckled at the next second.

"You're right. What can I do for you today?"

Andrew breathed a sigh a relief seeing that Amos had agreed with his words.

"Well, this is our department's new project. Although its location is very remote, it's a very good spot. No one has noticed its potential yet, but it's okay. If Valiant East secures it, we could build a supermarket and a commercial center here. According to the current expansion speed of Rosaville City, it would become the next downtown area of Rosaville City in the future!"

Amos took a look at the contract and didn't say anything.

Andrew then said hurriedly, "We're family, aren't we? Rest assured, I would not lie to you. After all, we're on the same boat now. The Chairman is my aunt. Strictly speaking, you're also my cousin. We should work together to get this project done well!"

Clint smirked silently and turned to give a meaningful look at Amos. However, Amos merely ignored him and said,

"Alright, since you think that it's going to work, then let's do it. I'll leave this project to you!"

Andrew was stunned and he replied, "I don't take charge of projects anymore. I could recommend a better team for you. They are also from our department..."

"Okay, I'll leave the arrangements to you then!" After that, Amos signed the contract.

Andrew was overjoyed. He took the contract and left happily.

Those who said that Amos was a smart person must be a fool! It seemed that he was nothing like what they had said! After Andrew left, Clint said, "President Granger, I reviewed this project a few days ago. That is not a good place at all. It's a swamp. If we take it, it will definitely give us trouble!"

Amos pursed his lips and responded, "Do you really think that I didn't know that?"

The reason for Amos's success was not only because he was decisive in making decisions, but also because he did everything with his best efforts and he would never allow any incidents to happen. Since he was preparing to return to Valiant East, he had researched all of Rosaville City's plans for auction as well as the projects due for tender for the year.

Hence, he already knew what the project was about the moment Andrew took the contract to him.

"Why did you sign it then? That is obviously his trap to drive us out."

"Let's see what he is capable of doing! Besides, haven't Eudora and the others been making a design of TAG Group's land recently? That land is on the mountain." Clint was stunned for a moment, and then he understood everything in an instant.

"TAG Group's land is on the mountain. Hence, they would need to quarry the mountain in order to develop it smoothly. The pieces of land and stones quarried would need to be properly handled according to the rules of the government of Rosaville City. Besides, the land that Andrew had just won happened to be a marsh. If we are willing to let them dump those pieces of land into our swampland for free, it would then be a win-win situation. And we don't even need to spend a dime. President Granger, this method is splendid! Have you planned this since long ago?"

Amos shook his head. He replied, "I'm not that smart. I just figured it out when I accompanied Eudora to sign the contract. If you really want to praise me, then I could only say Eudora is my lucky star."

What on earth...

Clint couldn't believe what he had just heard. He was forced to immerse in the sweetness again.

"President Granger, I know that you have a good relationship with your Missus!" Clint said grievously. The implication was for Amos to spare such affectionate words from a bachelor like him! The next second, Amos said,

"By the way, I did tell you last night that I'm going to arrange for you to have dinner with Anya, right? It's almost time. Anya should be at the Design Department now. Off you go!"

Clint was startled.

Why was President Granger being so petty? He just didn't want to hear all those cheesy words anymore. How could he treat him like that just because??
